Another Youth Group




I recognize one of the Williams boys, I think, and is the teacher Efie (sp) Mae Sumners?

The question which I phrased badly yesterday was this, while during the time most of these older pictures of youth were taken, I was not attending the Baptist Church on a regular basis, it seems that the Methodist Church had more youth in attendance than I remember from the Baptist Church. If there were more youth enrolled at the Methodist Church that would be usually for a small Mississippi town. Perhaps, I just didn't notice the younger folks who were attending the Baptist Church. However, as I think of the friends in my class, Winnie, Larry, Tim, Mary Katherine, George Beane were members of the Methodist Church while Butch, Mary Ellen and I were the only ones who attended Plantersville Baptist, if memory serves and these days it often doesn't.

June Harris from my class attended Plantersville Baptist until her family moved out west in the early 1950s, I'm fairly certain.

I am almost certain the girls on the back row are Sherrilyn Helms,Pam Bailey,Jan Bailey, Paula Monts, the boy standing next to Sherrilyn is Boyd Williams.

I do not recognize the boy on the end or the girl on the other end, but the next boy is Jerry Mcwhorter,the girls are Linda Partlow, Mimi or Linda Towery (I think)Cecilia Williams, Ellen Williams, Charlotte Grant.
